SS payments do not come from funds approved by Congress, the money is there and will be paid.
The employees who process SS payments are considered ‘key and essential’ employees. Besides the payment information is processed a month in advance.
That is good to know (The month in advance) However.... Normally I include the fact SS is a different Budget not the one Congress votes on, and a few other facts I left out here.
Still. I recall some concern over it the last shutdown. at that time My Wife was 1: Still alive and 2: On SS but her check was timed such that by the time the day rolled around.. Government was back in business.
This time.. Well I'm not sure that will happen, (2 days to go).
I'll check my blance before I hook up and go Wed.
THankfully I have a plan B if I need to use it.
